Movement

Hi Everyone!
I am 19 weeks Preggers today and am still not sure I have felt the baby move. I have been to the Dr. twice this month and both times there was a strong heartbeat. I am getting a little discouraged. I still don't really truely feel pregnant. I want to feel it move so much! I think I may have felt it once, but it wasn't enough to say for sure. Anyone else go this long without feeling movement?

I am 21 weeks, pregnant with my first. I just confirmed today that what I have been feeling is in fact movement. It started right at like 19 and half weeks. Does not feel strong, like little pops everynow and again, and it is lower than I expected. But at the doctors office today, she said that the uterus is too thick up top so you will only feel the movement down low,like in the area and inch and a hald below the belly button. I feel it most at night after dinner when I sit and relax on the couch.

You'll start feeling your baby move soon. Try not to get discouraged! And hearing your baby's heartbeat is wonderful. To me things started becoming more &quot;real&quot; once I heard my little girl's heartbeat for the first time. Now with every check-up I hear her heart beat. And seeing her when I went for my ultrasound was the best!

I've been feeling her move since I was around 18 weeks. Right now I am 21 weeks and have been feeling her move everyday. But, every woman is different. It also varies with how many babies you've had before - from what I've heard, the more you've had, the earlier you feel your baby moving.

I had an ultrasound at 12 weeks which seems like an eternity ago lol! I do love to hear the heartbeat and feel pregnant but it would be so awesome to feel the baby move! I just need to be patient lol. Thank you all for your input. I had heard you feel the baby between 16-20 weeks and I just feel like I am getting to the far end of that and it comcerns me somethimes! This is my first baby though.

It is coming. I felt little flutters for a while, and I will never forget that first kick. I was watching the Price Is Right. I got excited about the thought of free house cleaning for a year. When I said cool!!! The baby kicked.

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...

I have my maxed amount of epidural shots of my cervical DDD....(and no one cares about my lumbar DDD)..... I've done physical therapy, muscle relaxers, Amitriptyline, Nortryptiline, desipramine.....narcotics... So I decided to go to a spine specialist and they have me on Gabapentin. Its been two weeks and it did nothing for my lumbar ever... but it did seem to help my cervical and arm/hand pain...
